I used the barbed wire fence of the horse-ranch I was on, out in the bush, as an antenna for a broken TV I'd found ditched on the side of the road a few days prior .. I got through the static and tuned into RAGE, Cabaret Voltaire Senso

Zynthian audio/synthesis platform: I got it to act as an FX processor, and it has become an extremely rich resource for creative instruments and digital music-making. Not just an FX box, its really more like an entire studio. Synthstr

I recently had to go through the hell of setting up a Java development environment, plus Android emulation, on my new M1 MacBook .. mid-way through, I was cursing myself that I wasn't just using a Linux machine .. but okay, eventually,

This is an amazing project, in so many ways. My first thought is, the implant business has now got a problem. Soon enough, anyone and their pal will be able, finally, to validate their silicon at adequate scale.

As a huge fan of Lua, but not Python, I'm not sure whether to be terrified or impressed by this. Probably a little bit of both. Actually, I can already see ways this is going to be good for Lua adoption on some of my projects, but als

Hungarian villages are fascinating. Are you tuning into something, in particular, about them? (For me, its the village sun alignments/road-parallelism that fascinates..)

I also wrote a hypertext-like front-end with Turbo Pascal, pre-Internet, back in the day .. there was a 3rd-party UI framework that made it so reasonable to mix graphics and GUI elements in MSDOS, so .. we made a bunch of internal company

I just want to be able to write software on computers that I own, using tools I choose. Linux gives that option. None of the other phones do.

This is nice, but for the MacOS users who have a hard time dealing with the terminal, I've lived by the Secrets prefpane for some years and find it most handy: https://github.com/ecnepsnai/Secrets

I've used GDPR a few times to protect myself from nefarious actors. Its a valuable tool if you use it right, like all the things.

Depends on whether you are actively engaged in promoting views and beliefs that the mainstream don't want out there. Or maybe you're interested in securing the future for our children by degrading state secrecy.

I can see this working well for those working to expose the current Yemen genocide situation, too. Unless, of course, it is selectively used to allow denial of western war crimes and crimes against humanity.

This is an admirable move. I sure hope that it means its going to be harder for people to deny current era war crimes and crimes against humanity, too. That is way, way overdue.

If Iran are morally reprehensible for making this slogan a thing, then what exactly makes America's own violent radical religious fringe elements chanting "Bomb Iran, bomb bomb Iran" acceptable? This double standard is exactl

I think far, far fewer Americans support its illegal wars than you claim .. they're just silenced by the minority who stand to profit from it and who currently control the war megaphone.

Oh, its a slogan .. I thought we were talking about official government policy. I wonder if McCain meant his death chant literally: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7s5pT3Rris Its probably a good thing he didn't get
